Considered the ultimate aerial adventure race, the Icarus Trophy is a pure A-B undertaking for those ready to push their piloting skills to their limit.<\/p>

Over 3-5 days of high-impact adrenaline racing, pilots – competing individually or in teams \u2013 fly their way across 1,000km of breathtaking and remote landscape either following a set course or navigating their own way from checkpoint to checkpoint in a bid to fly faster and get to the finish line first.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The Icarus Trophy and Icarus X Series offers pilots two levels of competition.

Pilots looking for a fast-paced, flat-out sprint from start to finish are more suited to the Race Division.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

For all those pilots wanting to be bought alive by an incomparable human adventure where it’s all about airtime, not how fast you get to the finishline. Afterall, when going to the types of locations these races go to, you\u2019ll want time to take in the breathtaking scenery too.<\/p>

Adventure Division pilots are able to use transport other than flying and can accept outside support, either from complete strangers under the Pure Adventure sub-division or pre-arranged help from friends and family under the Adventure First sub-division.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

For super-hardy and experience pilots who grab life with both hands and who want to be the heroes of their own story. This is an edge of your seat aerial sprint to reach the finishline first and take the ultimate accolade.<\/p>

During the event, Race Division pilots must remain entirely unsupported, only progressing by means of flight or by foot while carrying all their kit. Pilots are then required to launch 200m from their previous landing point. If they can’t, then it’s a long trudge back on foot, in the direction of the startline, until a good launch site is found.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Building on the legacy of the Icarus Trophy, the Icarus X Series are all-action, short, sharp adventures designed to be accessible, achievable and challenging for all levels of pilot.<\/p>

These long weekend forays are still tough challenges to complete; routes cross hundreds of miles of extraordinary terrain and pilots are expected to camp overnight wherever they land.<\/p>

Icarus X races are perfect feeder events for anyone who wants to get into cross-country paramotoring or are serious about taking on its gigantic big brother.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
